AIDA-RE-1: Adaptive Individualized Hig-Dose Radiotherapy Analysis-Rectum-1. Interventional Study on Neoadjuvant Adaptive-treatment of High Risk Rectal Cancer

Aim of the study is to evaluate achievement of complete pathologic response (pCR) in high-risk rectal cancer treated with neoadjuvant concomitant chemotherapy plus adaptive-intensity modulated imaging-guided radiotherapy

Study Overview

Detailed Description

AIDA-RE-1 is an interventional prospective trial for the treatment of locally advanced high-risk rectal cancer. In neoadjuvant setting, patients are treated with standard chemotherapy plus experimental radiotherapy. The total dose to clinical target volume (CTV, rectum and locoregional lymph nodes) is 45 Gy, with a concomitant boost of 5 Gy to gross tumor volume (GTV), delivered with IMRT-SIB (intensity modulated radiotherapy-simultaneous integrated boost) technique in 25 fractions. After 2 weeks of treatment, patients are evaluated with 18 FDG-PET and sequential boost of 5 Gy (in 2 fractions) is planned.
